The proposal in brief

Maica proposes to install its Salesforce-native aged care platform directly into Opal's existing GEM Salesforce org: one environment, one data model, and no synchronisation layer between the resident journey and the new claiming, billing, and funding capability. Dynamics 365 remains the financial system of record, connected through Opal's retained Boomi middleware, while Maica's packaged Services Australia integration handles claiming through the ACWS and B2G channels and is kept compliant with legislative change at no cost under licence.

Delivery follows a phased plan of approximately 137 individually estimated activities, run as four week sprints with a rehearsal-first approach to go live: the complete deployment, data migration included, is executed in a full copy sandbox before it ever touches production. The plan lives in a shared Jira workspace both teams can see at all times, and go live is followed by structured hypercare, with an optional four month extended service supporting Opal's first four month-end claiming and billing cycles.

Commercially, the engagement is a capped time and materials model: Opal controls scope, pace, and priorities, and Maica will not exceed the capped effort without agreement. Licensing converts to an unrestricted site licence, a single organisation-wide fee with no per-user assignment for data access.
